Sex Hormones and Immunity to Infection
ISBN: 9783642425516 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 319 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Why sex matters Among human and nonhuman animals, the prevalence and intensity of infection typically is higher in males than females and may reflect differences in exposure as well as susceptibility to pathogens. Elevated immunity among females is a double-edged sword in which it is beneficial against infectious diseases but is detrimental in terms of increased development of autoimmune diseases. The present book critically reviews the evolutionary origin and the functional mechanisms responsible for sexual dimorphism in response to infection. It emphasizes the value of examining responses...

Sex and Gender Differences in Infection and Treatments for Infectious Diseases
ISBN: 9783319164373 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. This book provides an overview of the underlying sex-based and hormone-based differences in immunity, wound healing and pharmacokinetics, while also exploring how pregnancy affects immunity. The second part of the book shows, for the first time in a single volume, the growing number of infectious diseases for which sex and gender differences are noted, identifies common as well as distinct mechanisms mediating these differences and illustrates how responses to treatments might differ between the sexes. The awareness that males and females differ in their response to specific pathogens as well...

Seasonal Patterns of Stress, Immune Function, and Disease
ISBN: 9780521021173 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 308 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This volume presents evidence that infection is cyclical with the seasons, and that this phenomenon is mirrored in cycles of immune function. The authors identify the mechanisms by which immune systems are bolstered to counteract seasonally-recurrent stressors, such as extreme temperature reductions and food shortages. Stress, infectious diseases, autoimmune diseases, and human cancers are examined, and the role of hormones such as melatonin and glucocorticoids are considered. This is the first monograph to examine seasonal immune function from an interdisciplinary perspective.
